if you go too far with the needle it can numb up the facial never when it is in the parotid gland

95
Q

where is the orbicularis oculi found? and what nerve branches supple it?

A

found around the eye.

supplied by temporal and zygomatic branches of the facial nerve.

96

where is the orbicularis oris found? and what nerve branches supply it?

A

found around the mouth.

supplied by the buccal and marginal mandibular branches of the facial nerve.

97
Q

what does the levator labii superioris do?

A

curl the lip upwards

98
Q

what does the zygomaticus major do?

A

allows the corners of the mouth to move.

99
Q

what does the depressor anguli oris do?

Q

what type of fibres are found in V3?

A

motor and sensory

114
Q

why can an infection in the pterygoid plexus lead toserious/fatal conditions?

A

because it communicates with other spaces in the head meaning an infection in this area can spread.
